They don't deserve it.

It's like we tell rape victims - be aware of your surroundings. The same way with clothing - if you dress in a certain way, be prepared for potential results.

They don't ask for it. They don't deserve it. It's not their fault. But they do bear some responsibility in their actions and decisions.

I agree with this.

When my daughter was in the hospital, it was in a very bad part of downtown Kansas City Missouri. I had to take responsibility for my own safety. Park in well lit areas, got my car keys ready, ultra aware of my surroundings, etc... walked with my head up and with purpose.

Nobody is going to protect us but ourselves. We have to be an active participant.
